Back

Oxygen.

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

The process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy (glucose) using carbon dioxide and water.

Front

What are macromolecules?

Back

Large molecules made up of smaller subunits (monomers), including carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids.

Front

What is the role of glucose in cellular respiration?

Back

Glucose is broken down to produce ATP, the energy currency of the cell.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

Light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle (light-independent reactions).

Front

What is the primary product of photosynthesis?

Back

Glucose.
